Korte beschrijving
Determinatiesleutels | Morfologie | Morfometrie
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 4 - 7; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 10 - 13; Anale stekels: 0; Anale zachte stralen: 18 - 19; Wervels: 23 - 24. Branchiostegal rays: 4 (Ref. 36710).
Found in a wide range of habitats, from near surface to near bottom and sometimes in huge schools (Ref. 2850). May range into coastal waters (Ref. 36711). Oviparous, with planktonic eggs and larvae (Ref. 36711). Seems to be sympatric with Macroramphosus scolopax (Linnaeus, 1758) all around the world (Ref. 89357).
